Ballina Race 2 - Hartleys Fresh Market Ballina Fair Mdn Hcp
QUEEN OF THINKING (8) stepped out in a fairly strong Maiden on debut, with a tiring eighth over 1400m at Newcastle. Will appreciate the extra journey in a very average race. Go close. MISSION WISE (2) covered ground in the run first up with a plugging fifth over 1400m at Dalby. Finds a suitable assignment this time from a good draw. Each way. SO SAIN (9) is on a quick back-up after going out hard before tiring late to run fifth over 1526m at Lismore. Claim helps again and deserves another chance. MONEY ON MY MIND (6) found some form at her last two outings and can slide across from the awkward gate today. Gripped on late in the small field when second over 1400m at Armidale. Respect.

Most recently ran second last of 7 in a Mdn-Sw at Talwood on September 19 over 1400m, 7 len behind Amazara carrying 57.5kg at $13. Before that 5th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Warra on August 29 over 1200m, 8 len behind Summer Ready carrying 57.5kg at $17. Goes up in trip this time but still makes little appeal.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, ran last of 9 in a Mdn at Grafton on September 7 over 1200m, 10 len behind Nutcracker Queen with 57kg at $14. Last start 5th of 10 in a Mdn at Grafton on September 21 over 1190m, 5 len behind Trinity State with 55.5kg at $151. Has upside and is worth including.

Last start set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 7 in a Mdn at Armidale on September 20 over 1400m, 1.4 len behind Purple Prince with 55kg at $16. The run before that 2nd of 9 in a Mdn at Toowoomba on September 5 over 1300m, 5.5 len behind Hawaiian Bloom carrying 53kg at $16. Holding form and sure to be thereabouts.

Most recently 3rd in a small field in a Mdn at Gold Coast on September 26 over 1700m, slow going 4 len behind Alkebulan with 54kg at $16. Before that eased back early on 8th of 11 in a Mdn at Beaudesert on September 17 over 1100m, 8 len behind Adora Djon's with 53kg at $101. Needs to lift on the last run to be competitive this time.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, ran last of 8 in a F&M Mdn at Newcastle on September 18 over 1400m, 4 len behind Your Colour with 56.5kg at $81. Better for that experience, and finds a very weak contest.

Last start struggled in the run home; 5th of 7 in a Ctry Mdn at Lismore on September 25 over 1526m, slow going 6 len behind Airhawk with 53.5kg at $5.50. The race before that raced on the pace when 3rd of 7 in a Ctry Mdn-Sw at Grafton on September 7 over 1700m, 1.4 len behind Latin Lights carrying 57kg at $6.50. Capable of sharp improvement.
